I ’ve had my heart on wood box as a table centerpiece for a fall table a while now . I keep seeing these stuffed with candle and born elements , dress up the the table , and looking rustic - smart . This is my variation using a Sir Henry Wood liquor box , succulent , air plants , and pumpkins .
I ’ve been hang on to this wooden box that come with a nursing bottle of Booker ’s True Barrel Bourbon inside . I ’m not sure how I came to be the majestic owner of this corner , but I ’m reasonably certain I bought it as a talent and asked if I could have the box . No matter how it come into my willpower , I ’ve had it for many year as the idea formed for how it would be used .
I really like the stamp woodwind instrument as well as the size of it and shape . The Natalie Wood is just a bit too soft and thin to apply as planter , though . I originally want to use it as a vertical garden but I have a go at it that it would have only lasted one time of year or less before needing to be scrap . Then I started seeing a bunch of woodwind boxes used as table decor . What a swell theme ! you’re able to countersink the laurel wreath but then when the table fills up with intellectual nourishment and drunkenness , you’re able to easily just bulge out it to the side and get down to business .

To make your own centerpiece is a very simple project once you have the right wood box seat . you could use the Booker ’s box or evena forest planter box like this one . incentive channelise for making your own !
Stuff the bottom of the corner with paper to kindle the base up a bit . open Spanish moss over newspaper to cover it . Then you’re able to add up whatever you want ! I started with a mason jar soy wax light in the center . you could make your own James Neville Mason jarful standard candle using this tutorial :

Then I made a few mini Cucurbita pepo / gourd planters with succulents . To make these , travel along the instructions for make gourd candles :

I just love how it turned out !
